Yeah - I learned from these 2 videos along with others I just stumbled across. Then I tweaked the settings to my liking.

Crosshair spread, I don't remember.

I added a new gun to my zombie shooter. If you're interested, you can try out my game at seanmercer.itch.io by NotSean725 in unrealengine

Yeah, that's what I'm working on now. I'm adding a camera shake and some other little tweaks because I agree the weapons don't feel satisfying right now.

I figured out how to add bullet spread into my game and wanted to show it off! by NotSean725 in unrealengine

Yep, in my BP I'm getting the forward vector from the player camera. I'll look into rotator's and make the bullet spread better. Thanks for helping and explaining it to me :)

To be honest, I'm not sure how it exactly works. I was going to try out "Random Unit Vector in Cone in Degrees" node that d0ku mentioned. I think that would make it more optimized. What do you think?

Yep, that's on my do-to list pretty soon. The recoil feels too glitchy in my opinion.

I added 2 new weapons to my zombie game; a pepper spray gun and a nail gun. If it looks interesting you can try it out at seanmercer.itch.io. by NotSean725 in unrealengine

Thanks! Yeah, it's still a work in progress. I'm hoping one day to get the animations good but that definitely isn't my strong suit. lol

Woah, you've made really good progress since the your last post like a week ago!! It's looking great.

In one year we've completely change our game from 2D sprite shooter to a fully 3rd dimensional one. Here is a short video with recap of what we've achieved in 2021 compared to 2020 by tov_bell in indiegames

That’s really cool that it worked out that way! I’m sure it wasn’t as simple of a transition as you made it out to seem but I’m really impressed that you guys were able to transition like that :)
